While the narrative depth of Path of Exile 2 may not rival that of The Witcher 3, it compensates with intriguing side quests that challenge players' problem-solving skills. One such quest, Ancient Vows, might seem straightforward at first glance, but its ambiguous instructions often leave players puzzled.

In Path of Exile 2, quests typically involve navigating to a specific location and defeating a designated boss. Ancient Vows follows this pattern, yet it lacks clear directions on where to go or who to confront. Fear not, as our guide will help you complete this quest with ease!

How to Complete the Ancient Vows Quest?

The Ancient Vows quest automatically appears in your journal upon acquiring either the Sun Clan Relic or the Kabala Clan Relic. These artifacts are hidden in the perilous Bone Pits and Keth areas. To obtain them, you must delve deep into these zones, battling numerous enemies and meticulously exploring every corner.

The relics drop randomly from enemies, so be prepared for a challenging search. Once you have one of the relics, your journey continues to the Valley of the Titans, a mysterious and dangerous locale where the quest reaches its climax. Ensure you're well-prepared for the trials ahead!

Given the game's randomly generated maps, pinpointing exact locations is impossible. However, here are some tips: Upon entering the Valley of the Titans, explore until you find a waypoint. Near this waypoint, you should see a large statue with an altar. To place the relics, highlight them and drag them into the corresponding slots on the altar.

Rewards for Completing the Ancient Vows Quest

Your reward will be swift! You'll have the option to choose between two passive effects:

• 30% increased Charm Charge gain
• 15% increased Mana recovery from Flasks

If you later regret your initial choice, you can switch to the other effect. To do so, return to the altar where you made your original selection. This process, however, requires you to navigate potentially hostile areas again. Be ready for any challenges that may arise during your return journey, as the path back is as significant as the choice itself.

At first, these rewards might not seem remarkable. However, understanding the role of Charms in Path of Exile 2 reveals their importance in bolstering your defenses. By using situationally appropriate Charms, you can significantly enhance your survivability in boss fights. Since Charms, like flasks, consume Charges, the bonus from Ancient Vows can extend your endurance in tough battles. If your Mana Flask often depletes during intense encounters, the second bonus becomes increasingly valuable.
